As our 1989 Daimler Double Six is being prepared to be won through Bridge Classic Cars Competitions, Jon has been completing some repairs. Here is what he has been up to:

Reassemble after paint job. Refit boot trims and panels. Remove battery and charge. Reassemble removed parts from paint job. Clean battery tray and paint black. Fit modified battery hold down brackets and fit battery and secure. Help Lydia refit sunroof. Particularly awkward to get aligned. Lubricate and keep adjusting until satisfied with operation. Leave in the shut position to settle new seal in place. Refit wiper arms and wipers and test.

Investigate horn not working when refitting steering wheel centre push. Trace to earth fault but leave for now. Carry out full inspection and report. Grease all points. Reposition nearside driveshaft covers to gain access to grease nipples.
